Q – Health and Wellness

Prerequisite: International Folk Dance: Wilmington (Tuesdays). Participating in recreational international folk dancing is a wonderful way to meet people in the U.S. and many other countries, as knowing other languages is not required. This mild to moderate form of exercise is a great way for seniors to maintain cardiac fitness, mobility, balance and brain health. The focus is to learn dances that are frequently done in circles, lines or couples by local community groups in DE, PA, NJ and NY. Best to wear low-heeled leather bottom shoes.

This offering meets for a total of 13 session(s).
